POP Aesthetic Leadership Academy

Step into true CEO leadership to catapult your business across the next million dollar mark

Welcome to the one and only business incubator that helps female leaders in aesthetics and wellness disrupt the status quo, designed by the creators of Practice Optimization Principle.

Are you ready to build a deeply satisfying, lucrative, freedom-based business that stands the test of time?

It’s time to ditch the status quo

Traditional medical business models are outdated, and women in our industry are underrepresented, under-resourced, and underserved. It’s time for a new narrative.

You’re an expert at your craft, but like many aesthetic practice owners, you may not have been equipped with the training to lead a multi-million dollar enterprise.

The thing is, you’re ready for more. You want to lead a team and system that will catapult your business into the top 2% of your specialty. You want to disrupt the status quo.

We need innovation, ingenuity, and creativity to upend traditional models. This requires a ‘mindset over mechanics’ approach, because the answers to our questions are found within — not outside ourselves.

You’re a woman with perspective. A relationship builder. Someone who wants to be filthy rich in business and in life. You’ve built the confidence to scale your company, and now it’s time to roll up your sleeves and put your plan in motion.

Our team of experts will be with you every step of the way. We’re so glad you found us. Get ready, because you’re about to uncover treasure in your business.

Build your preeminent, category-of-one brand

You’re on the right track, but the core milestones of strategy, systems, and team are the keys to helping you elevate to the next level.

Your aesthetic practice should look, feel, and operate like a savvy, modern-day business. One that delivers an unforgettable patient experience and provides you with the authority, influence, and flexibility to match your expertise.

Here’s what you really need (and no one is teaching you)

to optimize and scale your aesthetic business

You need the right strategy so you can step into your role as the visionary leader of your aesthetic business — and stop wasting your energy on a million disjointed tactics.

You need access to proven experts in branding, marketing, and sales to guide you as you grow, providing tailored, personalized advice and answers so you never stay stuck.

You need 360° support and accountability, where you can talk to a human when you need guidance, motivation, support, and direction.

You need a fierce community where you can connect and collaborate with like-minded colleagues who are on a mission to disrupt the status quo and become preeminent leaders.

You get all of this in the POP Aesthetic Leadership Academy.

Meet Kaeli Lindholm

Our Founder & CEO

“I am on a mission to help 1,000 intentional and inspiring women in aesthetics cross the next million dollar milestone in their business this year.”

Hi, I’m Kaeli Lindholm, CEO of KLC Consulting and Founder of the POP Aesthetic Leadership Academy, a 12 month business development incubator for women in aesthetics and wellness who are seeking to unleash their superpower through their business, team, and personal brand. 

I am on a mission to help 1,000 inspiring and intentional women cross the next million dollar milestone in their business in 2024. 

Widely recognized as a brand revisionist, I believe achieving ‘category of one’ success requires taking a differentiated approach. My coaching and academy programs bring unique perspectives that challenge the very construct of business success. Paired with significant revenue growth, clients describe the benefit of working with me as “game-changing”, “both guide and exceptional partner”, and “provides value well beyond monetary measurement!” When you partner with me, you will make an empowered transformation in your business and life.

After spending a decade in corporate America, I jumped into a partnership role to build and manage a plastic surgery and wellness Institute. Through that experience I learned that there were foundational business gaps impacting today’s practices that most providers are not trained to master during their tenure in medical school.

Additionally, practice managers are busy wearing 1,000 hats and don’t have the time or resources to take months off for formal business training, leadership guidance, or personal care. Forget about building a multi-million dollar empire and being swift enough to notice blind spots before they become issues.

I created this Academy to address the dire gaps in core business and marketing training our aesthetic practices, leaders, and consultants need to succeed. I believe in applying modern day tactics to master timeless business principles in this intimate group environment where members will be welcomed with open arms to a team of fierce, like-minded industry leaders and experts.

It will be my honor to guide you and support you with my full energy, heart, and soul — and to be a part of watching your business thrive today and forever.

Key Highlights:

  • 12+ years of corporate sales, management, and marketing experience
  • Consultant and strategist for leading companies in our industry
  • Former Managing Partner of a growing 7-figure Plastic Surgery Institute
  • Significant measurable impact on hundreds of practices
  • Entrepreneur and business owner
  • Passionate and relentless in the pursuit of success for her clients
  • Celebrated author and speaker
  • Host of The Fierce Factor Podcast
